| Let’s face it. Assembling all of the meaningful creative pieces of a new construction development or gut rehab into something cohesive and beautiful by yourself can be a daunting task. |

| I’m guessing you don’t have time to play all the parts in this exciting (and complicated) process either. Right? You’re super busy with a full time job and looking for a fun quick flip to get your feet wet. Maybe you’re an investor who’s really good at managing tasks, but you don’t feel confident in your design choices or capabilities. Perhaps you’re a homeowner who wants to renovate the kitchen and bathrooms so you can maximize the sale price when you’re ready to list on the market. Or, you could have a ton of experience in rehabbing properties, but you’re looking to take on a new build…and simply don’t know where to begin. 😩 Since 2020, we have designed and renovated or built more than 18 properties — from smaller condos and single family home gut renovations with basement dig downs and full second story additions, to the brand new construction of 3-4 unit luxury buildings — valued at more than $11 million dollars. Working with a design consultant can help you save time and money, alleviate the burden of solo decision making, minimize mistakes and self-doubt, and ensure delivery of a well thought-through product that wholly aligns with your vision and goals. WHAT EXACTLY IS A DESIGN CONSULTANT? We like to think of it as a bridge between investors and homeowners, and the inspiring (and sometimes complex) world of design. A space where valuable design advice and organizational savvy are needed on a project, but a professional interior designer – while the perfect fit for some – just isn’t in the budget. 💵 Depending on your exit strategy (ie: Are you living in the home? Planning to sell? Rent it out?), we create the designs and then source and select appropriate finishes and fixtures for your project. Some examples include but are not limited to: tile, flooring, lighting, cabinets, countertops, paint, plumbing fixtures, appliances…and a whole lot more. We are happy to coordinate with your architect and general contractor to come up with (or modify) floor plans and elevations, as well as facilitate material deliveries, oversee installation, and help to keep the project organized and on time. Wouldn’t you agree– your upcoming renovation or new construction project deserves the best shot at success? Whether you are rehabbing a room, wish to build a new home for your family, or renovate a spec house to (re)sell, we’d love to be part of your journey. Local to Chicago, we offer design services virtually for custom and spec homes as well as short and mid-term furnished rentals, anywhere within the United States. Wanna pick our brain?
